Vestigial states are both what has gone and what hopes to be; once and future states.
• Vestigial ~ I) forming a very small remnant of something that was once greater or more noticeable; II) (in biology) degenerate, rudimentary, or atrophied, having become functionless in the course of evolution. • Vestigial structures ~ are features of an organism that are considered to have lost much or all of their original function through evolution. These structures can provide insight into the environment and behaviors of a species' and how they have evolved through time. |
